I fully admit I didn’t trust the vaccine when it was announced and was on the fence. Mostly because I didn’t trust the Whitehouse administration. Someone on reddit pointed out studies conducted in Germany, I read them, and changed my mind. When it became available for my age group I went and got it.
Now I concede that I might be infact a dipshit, but I have a family that depends on me. My kids are innocent and don’t deserve to grow up without a dad because of a very avoidable problem.
So yeah I get the anger and it is tempting to look at people and write them off, but chances are if they are removed from the world other people suffer.
